Welcome to JAT Chat, presented by the Journal of Athletic Training, the official journal of the National Athletic Trainers' Association. In this episode, co-host Dr. Shelby Baez speaks with Dr. Rachel Geoghegan (A.T. Still University) about her recent publication, "Advancing Care for Pregnant and Postpartum Athletes: A Call to Action for Athletic Trainers". This episode explores the limited evidence around exercise and injury in pregnant and postpartum athletes and emphasizes the vital role athletic trainers play in monitoring health, modifying training, recognizing complications, and supporting mental well-being. Dr. Rachel Gohagan issues a clear call to action: integrate perinatal health into education and research, develop clinical guidelines, and promote interprofessional, individualized return-to-play care so athletes receive evidence-informed and dignified support throughout pregnancy and postpartum.   Article: https://doi.org/10.4085/1062-6050-0060.25

After three years (almost) and more than 140 episodes, a pattern has become impossible to ignore: better outcomes don't come from doing more, they come from seeing more clearly.In this episode of the Unreal Results podcast, I zoom out and reflect on the themes that shaped this year of conversations, teaching, and clinical work. We explore why the body's wisdom consistently points us toward simplicity, how assessment precision creates clarity instead of overwhelm, and why confidence grows when you trust what the body is already telling you.In this episode, you'll learn:Why assessment should create freedom, not complexity, in clinical decision-makingHow better specificity makes treatment lighter, faster, and more effectiveWhat happens when you stop chasing tools and start trusting the body's directionHow a whole-organism assessment changes both outcomes and clinician confidenceThis episode is a reminder that you don't need to do more to get better results — you need to listen better and let assessment lead the way.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Episode 42: The Fundamental Attribution Error and Why You May be the Problem, Not Your ClientEpisode 119: Guaranteeing Results...

Welcome to JAT Chat, presented by the Journal of Athletic Training, the official journal of the National Athletic Trainers' Association. In this episode, co-host Dr. Kara Radzak speaks with Dr. Alan Needle about the paper, "Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Over the Motor or Frontal Cortex in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability".  The episode explains transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) mechanisms, study design (motor vs frontal vs sham, paired motor-planning rehab), main outcomes (patient-reported improvements across groups, limited neurophysiologic change), and practical implications for incorporating neuromodulatory strategies into athletic training and future research directions.   Article: https://doi.org/10.4085/1062-6050-0728.24    Episode Guest: Alan Needle, PhD, ATC, CSCS - Professor in Departments of Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Sciences at Appalachian State University in Boone, NC. https://phes.appstate.edu/faculty-staff/alan-needle 

Chris Anderson speaks with Dr. Brian McCarley about his journey from a head athletic trainer to a long-time successful chiropractor, guiding entrepreneurs, business leaders, and families.From Athletic Training to Chiropractic: Dr. Brian recounts his career shift, explaining that the late-night, intense lifestyle of an athletic trainer was incompatible with being a newlywed. This led him through a brief stint in the business world before choosing chiropractic—a more natural, faith-aligned healthcare approach—necessitating a difficult move to Texas for three years of school.The Entrepreneurial Decision Cascade: Success after the initial leap requires navigating a continuous series of smaller, difficult decisions that, when stacked together, can feel overwhelming. Dr. Brian advocates for prioritizing based on what's urgent versus what's truly important, and learning to make the "least bad decision" when all options are challenging. He suggests using whiteboards and Post-it Notes to visualize and prioritize tasks, and to always assess how one decision will affect others down the road.The Value of Advisors: Having a team of trusted advisors is crucial for gaining an outside perspective, simplifying complex issues, and identifying personal "blind spots" or ego-driven blocks that cloud judgment. Dr. Brian sees his role with patients and clients not as an educator, but as a "guide" to help them become the "hero of their own life."Overcoming "Brain Fog" with Health: The episode dives into the connection between health and entrepreneurial performance. Dr. Brian pinpoints "bright shiny syndrome" and neglecting self-care as common causes of mental clarity issues that compromise business-critical decisions.Practical Health Strategies for High-Achievers:Efficient Exercise: Focus on activities that offer the greatest benefit in the shortest time, citing rucking (walking with a weighted vest) as an effective, low-impact method.Time Management & Delegation: Calculate your effective hourly rate and delegate tasks that cost less than that rate to a VA or part-time help, freeing up the entrepreneur for high-value work and personal time.Hourly Brain Breaks: Set a timer to take a 5-minute break every hour to step away from the computer. This prevents neurological burnout and increases efficiency and problem-solving.The Logic of Intermittent Fasting: Dr. Brian shares his thoughts on intermittent fasting, noting that three meals a day is a product of the industrial revolution and that bodies are designed for periods of fasting. He advises anyone trying it to be deliberate, prepare for mental shifts, and learn to distinguish between true hunger and boredom by drinking water. This episode is NOT sponsored.

Explore expert tips for post-operative ACL rehab, including avoiding pitfalls like lacking extension & recommended biofeedback units. Q: What is your favorite phase of post-operative care for ACL repair? A: Phase 2 is a favorite because the athlete is getting off the table, which is exciting both mentally and physically. During this phase, significant gains are made, and progress continues toward returning to running. Q: What is your biggest tip to avoid pitfalls, such as lacking extension, in post-operative care? A: Consistently checking and actively feeling for extension daily is crucial. Make it a habit and an integrated part of the treatment flow to catch any issues early. Even a little bit of load when athletes start doing more of their daily activities can affect extension, so early detection is key. Q: Is lacking extension from one treatment to the next a red flag? A: It is not necessarily a red flag, but it should definitely be noted. This observation prompts consideration of what might have changed between sessions that could have caused the lack of extension. For example, it might indicate that too much activity was introduced. Q: Should fibular head mobilizations be immediately used for lacking extension? A: No, one should not immediately jump to using fibular head mobilizations. However, they can be a successful intervention in certain cases. Q: Can this ACL rehabilitation program be used for other surgeries? A: The framework of this ACL rehabilitation program can definitely serve as a guide for other knee surgeries. However, modifications are necessary based on the specific structures that have been surgically altered. For example, a meniscus repair would require avoiding weight-bearing, unlike an isolated ACL reconstruction. Q: What biofeedback units do you recommend? A: I recommend Mtrigger. It's an app-based unit with an easy setup, and it can be used more functionally beyond just table exercises. Additionally, it is versatile and can be applied in various other post-operative cases.

Welcome to JAT Chat, presented by the Journal of Athletic Training, the official journal of the National Athletic Trainers' Association. In this episode, co-host Dr. Shelby Baez speaks with Dr. Erica Beidler (Duquesne University) about her recent publication, "Concussion-Related Anxiety Perceptions of Parents of Youth Athletes". They discuss how parents interpret concussion risks, the study methods focused on football, soccer, ice hockey and lacrosse, and key findings showing high levels of worry—especially among mothers and parents without personal concussion history—while prior education did not reliably lower anxiety. Takeaways include asking parents about their beliefs before giving information, tailoring communication, promoting safe sport participation, and the vital role athletic trainers play in providing person-centered, psychologically informed care.

Ryan Hopkins has spent the last 15 years of his life exploring everything fitness and weightlifting related and, with the launch of SoHo Strength Lab in 2013, transitioned into the gym ownership aspect of the fitness world. Ryan began his deep dive into health and fitness as an Athletic Training major at the University of Central Florida, but his most significant learning was done outside of the classroom. Ryan separates himself from many fitness professionals because of his exposure to and comprehension of a wide variety of training methods and modalities. Ryan is constantly educating himself, applying what he learns in his training to “experience the individualities and peculiarities of each approach for every situation and circumstance.”      https://theperformanceparadigm.com/  https://www.instagram.com/sslryan/   Check Out My Game Speed Course and Programs at www.multidirectionalpower.com

Welcome to JAT Chat, presented by the Journal of Athletic Training, the official journal of the National Athletic Trainers' Association. In this episode, co-host Dr. Kara Radzak speaks with Dr. Travis Anderson and Dr. Eric Post about their recently published article, "Multiplying Alpha: When Statistical Tests Compound in Sports Medicine Research". Drs. Anderson and Post discuss how multiple statistical tests can inflate false-positive rates in sports medicine research, explain family-wise and experiment-wise error, and illustrate risks with a large-scale Paris Olympic Games analysis. They recommend transparency, pre-registration, correction for multiplicity, and consider Bayesian approaches to improve rigor and clinical decision-making.   Article: https://doi.org/10.4085/1062-6050-0700.24   Guest Bios: Travis Anderson, PhD: Travis recently joined US Soccer as the Manager of Research and Innovation, following his work as a Research Scientist at the USOPC where he worked closely with Eric. His academic background is in exercise physiology, although he dabbled in statistics throughout graduate school and enjoys continuing his education in applied statistics in sports medicine and exercise science. Eric Post, PhD, ATC: Eric is the Manager of the Sports Medicine Research Laboratory for the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee. Eric previously served as Program Director for the Master's in Athletic Training Program at Indiana State University and as a faculty member at San Diego State University.

Most leaders think they're setting the tone—but often, it's someone else. Matt breaks down how to identify the real influencers in the room, recognize subtle shifts, and build a repeatable process for situational mastery.From his decades in sports medicine and leadership research, Matt shows how the same tools used to train Olympic athletes apply to executives, dads, and anyone navigating high-stakes conversations.TL;DR* Situational mastery ≠ luck: it's about recognizing, reordering, responding, and reflecting (the R4 framework).* Invisible cues rule the room: deep sighs, eye rolls, micro-pauses—miss these and you miss the moment.* Leaders aren't always the influencers: figure out who others look to for cues, and win them as allies.* Tacit knowledge = wisdom: mastery comes from integrating hindsight, insight, and foresight (3D thinking).* The pace of change breaks hindsight: you can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic—blend past, present, and future.* No solo mastery: like Dickens' Scrooge, you need “ghosts” (mentors, coaches, truth-tellers) to correct blind spots.Memorable lines* “The metrics of success shift every time the room shifts.”* “Most leaders think they're setting the tone—usually, they're not.”* “Tacit knowledge is intuition you can trust, and it can be learned.”* “You can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic.”* “Every leader needs to know their Kissinger in the room.”GuestMatt Kutz, PhD — Professor of Sports Medicine & Athletic Training; VP of the World Federation of Athletic Training and Therapy; author of 8+ books on leadership, human performance, and global strategy.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmattkutz/Website: http://www.matthewkutz.comWhy this mattersLeaders today operate in a VUCA world—volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous. Titles don't guarantee influence, and old playbooks don't work. Contextual intelligence bridges the gap between knowing and being: it's not just about logic or intuition, but the fusion of both in real time.If you want to lead effectively—whether in boardrooms, classrooms, or family rooms—you need the ability to read the invisible cues, reframe priorities on the fly, and adapt without losing credibility.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Walking by Faith, Training With PurposeFrom Cedarville to the Indianapolis Colts and now the University of Kansas Jayhawks, Kyler Conn's journey is one stitched together by purpose, perseverance, and a deep-rooted faith.A recent graduate of Cedarville University's rigorous BA in sports medicine and Master of Athletic Training five-year program, Kyler's path has never been just about tape and treatment tables. It's been about serving others through athletic training while staying grounded in his walk with Christ. He recently shared his story on the Cedarville Stories podcast, reflecting on the power of mentorship, faith, and family in his life.Kyler's hands-on experience began with high-level internships at Baylor University, where he worked with both the football and men's basketball programs. From assisting in sideline emergencies to supporting long-term rehab for elite athletes, Kyler's experiences gave him a close-up view of what it takes to perform under pressure at the highest level. Then came the NFL — an internship with the Indianapolis Colts where Kyler worked alongside seasoned professionals in one of the most competitive sports environments.It was during his time in Indy that he connected with a strength coach who recognized Cedarville's name and faith foundation. He eventually invited Kyler to College Park Church, which became a spiritual home during that season.While sharpening his skills on the field, Kyler also invested in the classroom. His academic research centered on Emergency Action Plans (EAPs) — the critical blueprints sports medicine teams follow during catastrophic injuries or athlete collapse. He examined how preparedness, communication, and clearly defined roles can save lives in high-pressure moments. For Kyler, EAPs aren't just paperwork — they're lifelines, and he's passionate about equipping teams to respond with precision when seconds matter most.He's also a strong advocate for mentorship, crediting much of his development to those who invested in him. “I wouldn't be where I am without the guidance of those ahead of me,” he shared.Now, Kyler is preparing to join the University of Kansas as the athletic trainer for men's basketball and baseball. With his faith as his compass and a heart for service, he's ready to make an impact in Lawrence — one athlete, one rep, one moment at a time.https://share.transistor.fm/s/77a3fc4ehttps://youtu.be/WLku-bt4iSA
